Fish Taco Recipe?

[Shorts]

Hit the lake, bagged Red Drum. A friend is requesting some fish tacos. Anyone have a rocking fish taco recipe? Or their recipe of choice for fresh fishes/Red?

ETA: skin and scales still on the fillet

I recreate the Torchy's Baja Shrimp Tacos using fried fish:

Hand-battered fried shrimp (fish) with
cabbage slaw topped with pickled jalapeños &
onions, queso fresco, cilantro & a wedge of
lime. Served with Chipotle Sauce on your
choice of tortilla.

Torchy's is good stuff


Thank God for the US militia. The world's largest army.

Leave off the raw onion, cilantro and jalapenos, por favor.

So. I like to take the fish. Salt pepper, lemon zest, chop up a roast hatch peppers, add oil I like grape seed. Create a paste or lumpy Sauce.

Rub on fish. Grill over wood coals. (The wood is the kicker IMO)

Then make a pico de gallo. With mangos. So you got sweet smokey spicy. Serve on tortillas.

Fish ought to be enjoyed fried, baked, broiled, or roasted on a open fire all alone.

No tortillas required.

Cole slaw, hush puppies and green beans with bacon are a plus.

If you are old enough to remember when -- we ordered or cooked our food, then used tortillas as an afterthought.

Be well.

Fish tacos are great, even folks that are not crazy about fish like fish tacos!
The whole "all alone" thing gets old when fish is on the menu three or four time a week. Back in AK fish is our chicken so you tend to get creative.

Fish tacos , fried, grilled, hot smoked, or blackened however you prefer your fish of choice to be cooked. I like crispy fried best.

Fish broken up and in your warm tortillas ,topped with shredded cabbage or lettuce, some chopped tomato or pico, cilantro, a squeeze of lime, then top with a little ranch with jalapeño's blended in, or thousand island.

or Baja style fish tacos. kick ass eats, real fast and cheap to make. My kids will crush some fish tacos as fast as I can make them!

This recipe nails the grilled mahi , then we make them like I explained above.

Is there much difference in the texture and flavor of Reds that've been living in fresh water vs. salt?

Thanks!

Mahi soaked in Lime cilantro, olive oil, fresh garlic, pineapple, cuumin, corriander, salt and pepper. Grilled on a hot grill, along with the pineapple for a side.

serve up w shreaded cabbage, romaine, tomatoes, guacamole, cheese and salsa or whatever else with some grilled pineapple/mango on the side. HEB tortillas, were still hot when I got them home.
If you like them sweetened up , some ranch w dill or thousand island. Left over grilled chicken gets chopped and treated the same way, lol gone as fast as it gets on the table.

Also killer with grilled shrimp. As long as the seafood is wild caught USA its good to go! mahi was not but was wild
